Review on 🌲 LIGNOMAT Mini-Ligno DX/C Wood Moisture Meter by Bryan Orozco

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great for the professional, over the top for the homeowner.

So it's hard to tell if the moisture readings are 100% accurate. However, this product is extremely easy to use and comes with a laminated chart showing settings for testing different woods and substrates. It features a second set of pins for deeper measurement of different products. Percentages are clearly displayed, and the element is not cluttered with a bunch of dials and switches (actually just one). It showed different readings at different points and samples. I checked the numbers with boards I knew were wetter/drier and the numbers seemed to add up. It's certainly more money than I want to spend, but it's worth the money for peace of mind. As a contractor, this is a good tool to have in your arsenal, especially to hedge against future problems. If you're a hobbyist or a homeowner I wouldn't spend that kind of money. Just wait another week and allow your floor to acclimate before installing.

Pros
  • scanners and testers
Cons
  • old
